FUNDRAISING TIPS

Tip #1 – Team Recruitment: Encourage co-workers, friends and family to join your team by registering online at www.piercecountyaids.org. You can send invitations to join or sponsor your team from your My HQ page.

Tip #2 – from The Red Team’s Co-Captain Eric. “Use your talents and contacts. We have friends and team members alike with special talents and skills that are willing to help out the cause. For example, we are doing a raffle using services that people already do or have; massage, photography, even professional teeth whitening!” Get creative, and have fun to make the most of your South Sound AIDS Walk experience!

Tip #3 – from the current top fundraising team The Red Team. “The other part is asking businesses to donate. One business is allowing us to do a car wash at a prime location, and providing all the supplies for it! Another local tavern is hosting an event for us and donating! The main thing is to have fun! The activities we have planned are all things our team enjoys doing. It's a great way to make a difference but have a blast at the same time!”
